The method of accessing and changing the BIOS settings varies for each PC vendor
(and in some cases, for each model). In general, the two most common methods for
accessing the BIOS are by
1 pressing a particular key or keys on your keyboard when the PC is first
turned on
–or–
2 running a setup program provided by the manufacturer.
Refer to your PC manual for specific instructions on how to access the BIOS and
change the parallel port mode.
Cassette Chaining
If you have one or two optional lower feeder units, you may choose to have the printer
automatically draw media from other cassettes (inputbin) when the current cassette
empties. This is called cassette chaining, and it provides a total media input capacity
of 1250 sheets.
Enabling/Disabling Cassette Chaining
There are several ways to enable/disable cassette chaining:
Use your application. (Check the documentation to see if your application includes
a specific procedure for using a dual-cassette printer.)
Select an alternate cassette for chaining in the MINOLTA-QMS Advanced Level 2
Windows printer driver.
Configure the printer through the configuration menu.
